Big Eye Soldierfish

(Myripristis sp.)

Big eye soldierfish (Myripristis sp.) are a nocturnal species that will spend much of the day hiding under cliffs and ledges. They will feed during the day with the rest of your fish, but are most active during the nighttime hours. They do well in groups but may eat smaller fish and shrimp. Big eye soldiers get to be about 7-8”s and therefore, need larger-size tanks to do well long-term.
